your heart is on a silver platter
congratulations, you've learned to let go
you've become unable to flatter
because you know
you've been around, around, around
you've been around
jenny, you should be happy
because the world wants you to
jenny, you should be happy
because i want you, i want you, i want you to
and you could find somebody who will make you happy
but you don't, do you?
you could find somebody who will make you, make you
but you don't need to
oh jenny you should be warned
there are tears that can't be untorn
and though you're proud of what you know
just let it go
for now, for now, for now
just let it all fall down
you are your own blanket, be warm

paul, when you get to heaven there'll be
all these angels mostly sizes C and D
all well-endowed with god's great majesty
paul, milk and honey doesn't taste that good
why not get high and burn norwegian wood
'cause there are no penalties for staying put
all your time for work is over
no one here has to stay sober
and all those french girls
will take you by the hand and say "c'mon"
they're gonna take you by the hand and say "let's go!"
paul, you'll love to hear everything that they say
even just "je ne parle pas anglais"
because you're not that into language anyway
paul, i never get to see you anymore
and i hope you'll come and visit me before
you have to walk through that big pearly door
if you don't then i'll be sorry
that i moved across the country
and all those french girls
will take you by the hand and say "c'mon"
they're gonna take you by the hand and say "let's go!"
paul, better days are always up ahead
st. peter from that big long book we read
is gonna welcome you to heaven when you're dead
paul, maybe you can haunt this city to
and not just only pay attention to
all of those foreign friends st. pete'll give to you
and all those french girls
will take you by the hand and say "c'mon"
they're gonna take you by the hand and say "c'mon"
they're gonna take you by the hand and say "let's go!"
